Re: Using your kitchen faucet to heat the pool
What would you do with the water that you displaced by putting in the water? The thing that could potentially work is to pump the water from the pool, into a hot water heater, and then back to the pool, but I am sure the hot water heater needs the water to be in there a while before it will heat it up. I have heard of other methods to heat a pool. A coil of black plastic pipe, pump the water through it and set it in the sun back into the pool. Or else a coil of copper pipe, like 1", and set it in a fire and pump it back in to the pool. The copper one I get a feeling is pure BS, but the plastic one could work, but slowly I would say.
I got a pool heater off of ebay for 560 dollars I believe, and I put it in myself, it is one of the best investments you could make if you ask me. I raised the temp of the water over 20 degrees in like 8 hours. I have had the water up to 96 before, which happens to be too hot for my tastes, but it is awesome.
